When I was asked to photograph for the mental health campaign Time to Change - I couldn't say no. It is a pleasure to raise awareness for such an important cause that I care so deeply about. The aim is to raise mental health awareness young people and get them to look out for their friends.
"If your mate's stopped hanging out, reach out."
We only had a matter of days to pull it all together - that meant locating a youth centre with a table football, a chicken shop that didn't mind a photoshoot invading, and six teenage models who were up for a laugh. But thanks to a great team it all went to plan and we created some brilliant images for the campaign.
Thank you to Ogilvy for the commission and to everyone involved for making the shoot happen.
